This laptop has 2 Storage drives in it. A 128GB Crucial SSD + a 320GB HDD in place of the CD drive.

This is an awesome way to have an incredibly fast machine with also allowing for the extra disk space a SSD does not offer. I currently have it set to back up through time machine the SSD onto a partition on the HDD!

I have every Apple Certification possible basically, I work at an Apple Specialist store and have extensive history in repair. I hold the Apple Certified Mac Technician title.

I list this to explain that the SSD installed and the removal of the optical drive in place of an extra HDD was done under all of the appropriate tools using an ESD safe workbench. Not some guy in his basement!

The RAM was upgraded using the same brand as APPLE OEM.

It does have some scuffing and has a ding on the top left corner. All pictured.

This machine scored a 6088 on GeekBench, for reference a 2012 Retina 13 scores 6800~

Anyone who can transition seamlessly from defending one vendor and bashing another vendor to bashing the one he formally defended and defending the one he formally bashed has a instant credibility problem.
